Renekton - Croc is asking to be heard Riot!

Renekton, imo, needs to be overhauled; there are so many things wrong with him right now, as have been pointed out multiple times in this thread. I'd GLADLY exchange a good deal of early game strength for the ability to actually matter in the mid and late game. Again, as has already been stated I'm sure, Renekton's scaling basically doesn't exist - if he's not ridiculously fed, he completely fails after the early game.

Anyways. All criticisms towards Renekton can pretty much be summed up as "his Passive is vanilla". He's a good champion, his Passive is just really boring and ignored.

Riven doesnt fall off late because she builds damage. Every other AD caster builds bruiser after their first couple of items. Which is why they fall off. Frozen hammer is an overrated mediocre item, especially on renekton/talon. Yet i see them all the time on those two. Garen would be great late game if his ultimate wasnt garbage. Pantheon is a very good niche pick. Put him bottom and he craps on most ad carry lanes, you just need your ad carry somewhere else. (twitch jungle, ezreal/urgot/cait mid, kayle top)

Basically all AD casters should follow the riven roll and build standard BT, LW, GA and then more damage. Stop getting spirit visage, stop getting hammers. If you want to be tougher go warmogs/ga or aegis/GA depending on money. ANd most importantly make sure theres a hard engage on your team. Morgana, amumu, galio, leona etc.

Think of it like this, most ad casters have a good poke or have kits that basically say get in and get out. Your mid games are great because your bases are good and that brutalizer give good mid game power. What does that hammer do for talon afterwards? You can either live slightly longer, or kill faster. AD casters are meant to kill faster.

I wish he scaled a bit better, but other wise i think he's aight as he is. I'd need to hear a REALLY interesting yet not op change in his passive to make me really want a significant change like that. Till then, Come back when you've picked up all the bits of yerself.
